4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit cc8e4fc0c3b5e8340bc8358990515d116a3c274c upstream. Don't check if timer is running with a timer_pending() before deleting it with del_timer_sync(), this defies the whole point of the sync part and can cause a possible race. Instead we just want to make sure the timer is initialized early enough before we have a chance to delete it.
